•Aggregate functions can be used for some group by clause in this case it will give summary information for that specific group.
Example: Display the maximum salary of all departments in company
SELECT department_id as Dept,
AVG(salary)as Avg
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
| Dept | Avg |
|---|---|
| 10 | 34000 |
| 20 | 30000 |
| 30 | 25000 |
| 40 | 12000 |
•Nested Group functions
Group functions can be nested to a depth of two
Example, display the maximum average salary
SELECT MAX(AVG(Salary))
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
| MAX(AVG(Salary)) |
|---|
| 60000 |
